His return will take place in total anonymity. Director Nicolas Bedos will offer its new series this Thursday, October 12, 2023 on Amazon Prime Video Alphonse, critically acclaimed and featuring a prestigious cast. In this new series, Jean Dujardin is Alphonsea Don Juan “who is there to satisfy all the desires of women, even the most unmentionable”. Jean Dujardin responds to Charlotte Gainsbourg, Pierre Arditi and Nicole Garcia. But despite this fine casting, the series, once sold by Amazon as an event, was finally launched in the strictest confidentiality, given the accusations of rape and sexual assault which target Nicolas Bedos, and against which he will having to fight next January, since indicted following complaints filed by four women.
According to The ParisianAmazon Prime Video was initially supposed to broadcast this series at the end of the yearbut faced with the Nicolas Bedos affair, the platform once considered to cancel its broadcast and throw the six episodes that make up Alphonse in the trash. Finally, Amazon chose to bring the series forward to mid-October, in order to keep it as far away as possible from the trial that awaits the director of the series. Question de timing… Finally, the launch of this series took place without marketing or promotion, amid general indifference. Even the actors starring inAlphonseapart from Jean Dujardin, do not promote this series in any way.
He faces up to 5 years in prison for one of the cases
As a reminder, on June 21, 2023, Nicolas Bedos was placed in police custody, the day after a complaint filed by a 25-year-old woman accusing him of having sexually assaulted her. In her complaint, the accuser claimed that the filmmaker had touched her private parts over her pants, in a Parisian club, three weeks earlier. Through his counsel, Nicolas Bedos did not deny the accusations against him, but affirmed that he had not “no memory of such a gesture”which would have occurred according to him “accidentally under the influence of intoxication”. Nicolas Bedos will be tried next February for “sexual assault while drunk”, and faces up to 5 years of imprisonment and a fine of 75,000 euros.
A few weeks after this first complaint, according to information published by Médiapart, three other women made themselves known to the authorities, and denounced sexual assaults and even rapes allegedly perpetrated by the 44-year-old actor. The Paris prosecutor’s office opened last July a preliminary investigation for “rape” and “sexual assault”. One accuser was heard on July 4, 2023, and a second on July 21.
